Who will attend (target audience): GÉANT Software development teams: developers, tech leaders, product managers
Aim: The aim is to present how the current processes and approaches used in several GÉANT Software teams could leverage the extraction and identification of best practices. They are directional recommendations aimed to support more effective software development, covering all areas and goals that are relevant in the GÉANT environment. We will show, on selected examples, how they could be interpreted, adopted and deployed.
...
- The Catalogue of Best Practices is a live resource that facilitates improvements in teams, it is immanently open for extensions and improvements
- Best practices are based on teams' experiences, teams decide if and how to implement them and collaborate to increase the value and help others improve
- The Software Management team offers guidance and support on implementing best practices
- Teams should pay attention to requirements and both needs and stakeholders evolve - the corresponding best practices and experience may provide some guidance
- Managers, customers and GEANT are concerned regarding the IPR; software reviews and GEANT WhiteSource service can help with libraries IPR and vulnerabilities

Common Best Practices related questions to be observed in examples
- The problem that we had and how it reflected on outcomes?
- What we have tried and how we eventually addressed the issue?
- Where the adopted practice and tools came from, particularly if that was from GN?
- Possible alternatives and, based on our experience, what did work and what did not work very well?
- What are the effects of this new practice and related tools on our work and outcomes?
- What can be applied directly and what should be customised or omitted?
- How other teams could make use of this and how we could help?
